Know your farmer. Know your impact.
Who we are
Ben Flikweert en Miles Buhlmann, oprichters van 2cantrades

"We're not
your typical
traders."

We do things differently. We follow the farmer’s lead.

At 2CanTrades, we believe in a more honest way of trading coffee. Our starting point isn’t the market. It’s the farmer.

We work with growers who do more than produce coffee. They protect biodiversity, they nurture soild instead of exhausting it, and they pass on knowledge instead of chasing yields.

It’s our mission to build relationships at origin, direct, honest and long-term. From Costa Rica to other origins around the globe. That’s how we source specialty coffee with real depth. Rooted in people, not just in flavour.
